Analysis of Jesus gets up close to hidden sin…
Gets a lot of attention
Says that He is Son of God.
Has come to deliver.
To make clear a glorious Path.
Has a lot of great stories.
Promises of the good to come.
Yeah, good he says in this Roman
Tributary, being drained dry.
Being humiliated by chains and whips.
And taxes.
I run a dry goods business.
Cut a few corners
Have to do it, I believe.
Otherwise, Marcus, down
The Lane gets the market trade.
Money made but so very tired.
Hardly see my family
Work is so demanding.
Oh here comes that Man so sturdy.
Surrounded by cheers, adulation.
He is not rude in getting them
Out of the way? I think He targets me.
Gets close…in my face.
Looking on, silently.
His eyes seem to hold wonders.
His aroma noticeable and pleasant.
Does He know?
Know what’s out of whack
With me and my choices?
My compromising?
Yes, think He does, but seemingly
It’ alright at this moment.
All right.
His smile continues, and
He stays here close.
I feel emptied.
I am strangely warmed.
Forgiven?
